To allwhom'it may-concern:

Be it known that LIMARIE BOETTOHER- ing at New York," in the county of New-York and State'of New York, have-invented cer-- tain new and usehllmprovements in A paratus for SingeingFoWls, ofwhich the to lowingiis a specification. k

The singeing' ofgfowls has hitherto .been

woods fire built fortha't 'purposef Such method, however, has-provento be disadvant'ageo'us, inasmuch as the hands of the erson holdingthc fo'wl are frequently burned i The object otmy invention is to provide an apparatus, whereby the 'singeing can be carried out without ones holding thefowl.

preferably of sheet iron, which is to contain s irit, oil, wax or any other suitablej fuel. rom one end'of this receptacle projects a. hollow neck, th ough which extends a number'of.wicks,- \ihe inner endsof which rest on the bottom .0' the receptacle submerged in. the fuel and the other ends of which project outward through perforations the neck. To use this apparatus the-wicks are ignited and by grasping the handle of the receptacle, which may 7 table, and by nov ng it around the bo'dyithe latter is be suspended or be restin'gion the fowl .is thus completed,Qthelatter .can beturned around to allow of its rear orvlower' part -being singed'in the same-manner; The

the outer end of the'neck allows ofa greatnurnber of flames being used, so that alarge portion ofj the fowl can be singed at' once.

an e'nlargd vertical section of t apparatus a is the receptacle which forthe sake of simplicity and.of reducing the cost of the a paratus may be made of sheet iron; In t e openin 'b, through'which the fuel is intro- 7 ml which is closedby a lidc screwed I (or 0th rwi se secured'i'n it. =At the rear the re'cept cle is providedwith a handle (1.
